- The Machinedrum from Elektron was really something else. Too capable for its own good - marrying nearly 50 synthesis machines, MIDI machines, input machines, control machines, RAM/ROM machines and neighbour machines, the Machinedrum with the X.08 firmware is a modern marvel that every producer should own!
Check out my samples on Bandcamp - loads of vintage and modern drum machines and more, all ethically-sourced and locally-grown here in the lab in Bristol, UK:

The black faceplate is custom made by AUDIO Parasites based out in Australia - they make an awesome range of faceplates for all kinds of devices, including lots of eurorack, and have served the likes of Richard Devine! Check em out:

I am running the Machinedrum at the X.08 firmware, which is an incredible overhaul of Elektron's original vision for the machine. From the quality of life features to the wholly new machines on offer, this is a must-have for any Machinedrum owner. And it's FREE. Head over to Elektronauts for more information and download links:

literally the best machinedrum video ive ever seen. although i love elektron more than any other gear manufacturer and owened all of the post-octatrack machines, and the specs on the md seem perfect for me, ive maybe come across one other video aside from cenk's walkthrough that impressed me
Wow, thank you so much! Absolutely honoured. I love Cenk's 'Snifftakt' performance and I really like how weird and wonderful shunk's Machinedrum videos get. Just love jamming on this device! Hope you get one soon.
Hell Yah!!
Wtf you got the black faceplate too!!! Sick.
Yep, couldn't help myself! Makes it look a little less iconic but it matches my studio a bit more, and means the original Elektron faceplate won't get dinged up. The guy at AUDIO Parasites is really nice as well, had a good chat.
yass man. thinking of getting the sample pack as i have some serious MD gas rn and already have an OT (and DT and A4..)
You have a good collection of sounds already - the DT and A4 are a brilliant combo! OT of course is the sampler king, though I could never get into it. That said, the digital machines of the MD would complement those well... :D
your jams are just top level man, great one!
Thanks so much, that means a lot to me. :)
I'd love to have the firmware features but I'm too nervous to install unofficial firmware on a $2500 discontinued classic. Afraid something would go wrong and I'd brick it. Definitely need to get a UPS first since I have random power outage once or twice a week here.
Well if it's any comfort, there's no chance you'll brick your MD with the firmware. Worst that could happen is, it won't install at all. Took me about 30 attempts with a dud MIDI hub before I got it working with the official Elektron TM-1 interface. Theres so much fun to be had with the new machines and tuning function etc. But if I had that many power outages, I'd be afraid to turn it on! Hope you have surge protection.
just stumbled upon your channel. you are creating some great music! i especially like this track. great stuff! liked and subscribed.
What a lovely thing to say, thank you very much!
tite! 👍🏽
Great Jam again!! Congratulations!!... and some technical questions as I'm trying to figure out how you get to those beautiful and restless parts...are you playing with a ctr al? Or a ctr 8p? Sampling mds audio as well?
Thank you, and thanks for the like! I'm using the FUNC+knob control-all method followed by a kit reload, not the ctrl-all machine. Not sampling the audio either, not tried that yet. :D
Machinedrum without processing?
A little processing - ran through FabFilter Pro-MB, Pro-Q3 and Pro-L. :)
Sick! All sounds from the machinedrum itself, not using ROM/Ram sampling machines?
Cheers! Only one sample on this one - the snare is from the Amen Break which is stored on a ROM machine. :)
@@lstlvls2521 thanks for thr reply! I just bought a SPS-1 but non UW. So i wonder how it goes if i cant use the sampling function
@@nicholaswonglikhan I had a Mk1 non-UW for a while. Honestly, you can get out of it about 80% of what the Mk2 UW+ can do, because the synth machines are so incredibly varied. I only tend to use one or two samples per project, and due to the limited memory, you really have to squeeze the most out of each one, but it's super satisfying. I supplemented the Mk1 with a Digitakt and ran the Digitakt audio through the Machinedrum for the crunchiness. It's a great combo and still cheaper than a Mk2 UW+.
@@lstlvls2521 I also have a digitakt! Is there anyway i can ask you stuff? I'm kinda newbie to connect devices and stuff like that..
@@nicholaswonglikhan Of course man, ask me anything. :)
